Luca Arena (1988) è nato il primo giorno di primavera alle 9:30. È daltonico da 32 anni e ogni giorno cerca di farsene una ragione. Ha studiato economia e marketing presso l’Università di Pisa e nel tempo libero si dedica a viaggi e reportage fotografici. Molto legato al tema dei colori e alla loro percezione nel contesto ambientale, ama fotografare palazzi e finestre concentrandosi sulle linee e sulle geometrie.
Ha all’attivo diverse mostre personali e collettive. Il suo recente lavoro “Impersonalism: Tenerife” è stato presentato al pubblico con una mostra personale presso Spazio 32 di La Spezia, luogo di riferimento culturale di Fondazione Carispezia.
Luca Arena (1988) was born on the first day of Spring at 9:30. He is color-blind since 32 years and every day trying to get over it. He studied economics and marketing at the University of Pisa, and during his free time he travels and takes photographic reports.
Very attached to the theme of colors and their perception in the environment, he loves to photograph buildings and windows, focusing on the lines and on the geometries.
He has several personal and collective exhibitions. His recent work “Impersonalism: Tenerife” was presented to the public with a personal exhibition at Spazio 32 in La Spezia, the cultural reference site of Fondazione Carispezia.
